I'm sorry, I can't agree with this warning/threat. Right now, the
simple playback leader is Flash video, because of a very compelling
deployment story. What will be interesting is the effect of getting
the HTML5 <video> tag supported in more and more browsers -- there's a
large class of developers that only needs playback and maybe a little
bit of interactivity ("on click, go to time x"), which is easily
supported with JavaScript. This works today in Safari and the WebKit
nightlies (Firefox too, I think?), and with WebKit, you could put that
kind of approach in a Dashboard widget, among other things.
---> have you tried Silverlight's video playback btw? (www.silverlight.net).
Any comments on that one? (since the Beta supports a subset of the .NET
runtime, one could possibly use Java to C# convertion [or a transcoding
compiler] and a QTJ compatibility layer to make their QTJava app compile for
Silverlight)
